Jews resided
in Dalfsen as early as 1760. By 1813, the population of Dalfsen
included five Jewish families, four of which were poor. During the
first half of the nineteenth century, religious services were held
in the home of the head of the community, who also hosted a
religious teacher for the village's Jewish children.
The Dalfsen community was declared independent in 1838. In 1866,
the community dedicated its own synagogue, located on the
Julianastraat. The Jews of Dalfsen also maintained their own
cemetery.
In 1937, the Jewish community of Dalfsen was dissolved and merged
into that of the city of Zwolle. The synagogue was sold. Over the years,
the former synagogue served a number of functions. In 1982, a local
initiative led to the restoration of the building, which was
reopened in 1984 as a cultural center. Following a second
restoration in 2003, the former synagogue was converted to a
meeting and exposition center. Dalfsen's Jewish cemetery has been
maintained by the local government since 1958.
